Visual Prison Anime: All You Need To Know

Visual Prison Plot Summary

Music connects feelings and becomes a bond. It connects people and overcomes many barriers, conveying feelings to people. This power may change even the non-human vampires.

Vampires are beings with high intelligence, good looks, and eternal life. Living in the dark, they love music, want to sing, and create a variety of things. Humans have been enthusiastic about their music, not knowing that many artists are not human beings. One of them was the style called “Visual Kei”.

In modern times, Vampires gather in Harajuku, Tokyo, Japan under the Red Moon. It indicates the location of the annual vampire feast, Visual Prison.
